- MongoDb Atlas as a database (NoSQL databases have flexible data models, scale horizontally)
- Node Js for server( Node.js runs single-threaded, non-blocking, asynchronous programming, which is very memory efficient)
- Nodemon for automatic restarting server on every file changes
- EJS (Embedded JavaScript) is used due to its ability to create dynamic web pages with JavaScript, support for reusable components, server-side rendering (SSR) capabilities, seamless integration with Node.js, familiar syntax like HTML and include logic
